Finally! "The 100 Greatest Japanese Rock Albums of All Time" Listed

The "100 Greatest Japanese Rock Albums of All Time" have been chosen by Rolling Stone Japan. Well, they've been chosen by RS contributing editor Kawasaki Daisuke, who also founded the very stylish pop music/fashion/design mag Beikoku Ongaku, so the list could very well be worthwhile. We here at Exclaim! are amazed a list as such never existed before. Unsurprisingly, the oldest album dates way back to 1968 (The Jacks' Jacks no Sekai), however in a breakdown of decades, it appears most of the "greatest" were released in the '80s and '90s, which split the vote at 34 releases a piece; the '70s come in second with 23 (but can boast for having the highly coveted top spot with Happy End's Kazemachi Roman), the '00s have 8, and the '60s, well, just one.

P.S. If you have more than five of these albums, you're more schooled in J-rock than I am.

Without further ado, the list (apologies for removing the Japanese characters - they were problematic):
